research Lineage Tracing of Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Epidermal Whole Mounts
The method allows for 3D tracking of hair follicle stem cells and shows they can regenerate hair for up to 180 days.
research A new tool for conditional gene manipulation in a subset of keratin‐expressing epithelia
The Megsin-Cre transgene is a new tool for genetic manipulation in the skin and upper digestive tract.
research Scaffolds for epidermal tissue engineering
New scaffold materials help heal severe skin wounds and improve skin regeneration.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research Re-investigating the Basement Membrane Zone of Psoriatic Epidermal Lesions: Is Laminin-511 a New Player in Psoriasis Pathogenesis?
Laminin-511 may contribute to psoriasis by affecting skin cell growth and survival.
research KIF18B is a cell-type specific regulator of spindle orientation in the epidermis
KIF18B is important for correctly positioning cell division machinery in skin cells, affecting hair follicle development.
research Keratin 15 Expression in Stratified Epithelia: Downregulation in Activated Keratinocytes
Keratin 15 helps maintain tissue integrity and is reduced in activated keratinocytes.
research Directed Expression of a Chimeric Type II Keratin Partially Rescues Keratin 5-null Mice
A chimeric keratin partially improved skin structure in mice lacking keratin 5, but didn't fully restore normal skin.
research The Type I Keratin 19 Possesses Distinct and Context-dependent Assembly Properties
Keratin 19 forms less stable and shorter filaments than keratin 14, giving unique traits to certain skin cells.
research Tissue repair and stress responses of aged skin epidermis
Aging disrupts skin repair and stress responses, but exercise-related IL-15 improves wound healing and skin health in older skin.
research Interfollicular epidermal stem-like cells for the recreation of the hair follicle epithelial compartment
Human skin cells with stem-like features can help create new hair follicles and sebaceous glands when combined with other cells.
research Advanced therapies of skin injuries
New skin substitutes for treating severe burns and chronic wounds are being developed, but a permanent solution for deep wounds is not yet available commercially.
research Melanocyte progenitor cells reside in human subcutaneous adipose tissue
Melanocyte progenitor cells are found in human fat tissue and can become mature melanocytes, which may help treat skin issues.
research Impact of mTORC1 inhibition on keratinocyte proliferation during skin tumor promotion in wild‐type and BK5.AktWT mice
Rapamycin reduces skin cell growth and tumor development by affecting cell signaling in mice.
research Expression of MK6a dominant-negative and C-terminal mutant transgenes in mice has distinct phenotypic consequences in the epidermis and hair follicle
Mutant MK6a transgenes in mice cause blistering, hair loss, and potential human alopecia.
research GLI2 Is Expressed in Normal Human Epidermis and BCC and Induces GLI1 Expression by Binding to its Promoter
GLI2 activates GLI1, promoting skin tumor growth and hair development.
research Molecular cloning of two novel types of peptidylarginine deiminase cDNAs from retinoic acid‐treated culture of a newborn rat keratinocyte cell line
Two new enzymes, PAD-R11 and PAD-R4, were cloned and showed activity, with PAD-R11 resembling epidermal enzymes.
research Field Cancerization: From Molecular Basis to Selective Field-Directed Management of Actinic Keratosis
Photodynamic therapy is the preferred treatment for skin precancer due to its effectiveness and safety.
research Forearm hair density and risk of keratinocyte cancers in Australian adults
People with denser forearm hair have a higher risk of certain skin cancers.
research The melanocyte photosensory system in the human skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research Abstract 5020: Characterization of epidermal stem cells in SKH1 hairless mice, a widely used mouse model to investigate ultraviolet radiation carcinogenesis.
SKH1 hairless mice have identifiable epidermal stem cells with specific markers.
research Ligand-Independent Vitamin D Receptor Actions Essential for Keratinocyte Homeostasis in the Skin
Vitamin D receptor actions without binding are crucial for healthy skin and hair.
research A new in vitro culture system to produce a fully differentiated epidermis from human hair follicle outer root sheath cells

research Delayed Wound Healing in Keratin 6a Knockout Mice
Keratin 6a is important for quick wound healing from hair follicles.
research The human cysteine protease cathepsin V can compensate for murine cathepsin L in mouse epidermis and hair follicles
Human cathepsin V can replace mouse cathepsin L to maintain normal skin and hair in mice.
research Characterisation of CD4+ stem cells of the skin and their role in skin homeostasis and tumourigenesis
